The Gunners remain a point clear of Manchester City, who have now won eight of their past nine, thanks to Wednesday's 3-2 victory at Swansea City.

Fernandinho opened the scoring before Wilfried Bony levelled for the Swans prior to Yaya Toure and Aleksandar Kolarov giving City a two-goal lead. Bony struck back spectacularly in injury-time but it wasn't enough as Manuel Pellegrini's side made it five in a row.
